Hmm.

And we get upset with the shoe guy/gal/robot when they post here selling stuff...

:D

Sorry,am older than the introduction of metric-one of the sad over 40's who still thinks in feet and inches.

My contact for fox 40 costs me $6 NZ-how does this compare with you guys prices?

I got some off of EBay.

Depends on where you buy them. The prices mostly range from $4.50-$5.75/whistle.

I believe that's a term used in the adult entertainment industry.:D

I pay $10.00 (AUD) for a fox forty mini - with mouthgaurd. I pay $19.00 (AUD) for a fox forty classic - with mouthgaurd; and $10.00 without. I kind of get ripped off.

I've bought from these guys a couple of times and had good luck.

Cleefy,try Bill Norwood at sportsline in Melbourne -he ships anywhere.$6 nz is about $5.50 Aud

Not trying to be a jerk or a smart-a$$, but how many whistles do you need? I've been using the same Fox-40 for the last 2+ seasons (at least 100 games) and it's still in excellent condition. And yes, I wash it after every game, so it's not all crusty and nasty.

Now I always carry a couple extra whistles & lanyards just in case the one I'm using breaks (though that has never happened in my 7 years of officiating), but at least twice a year I end up loaning/giving one or the other to a partner who has forgotten or can't find his/hers.

well that exactly what I need them for. Extra and spares. I get the Fox 40 CMG and I chew the heck out of them so its always nice to have some new ones.

The same whistle for 2 years? Ewwwwwweeee. :D

Peace

Yes, but those whistles are always cleaned and sterile. Don’t you still have the same underwear of 2 years ago? Tide and bleach removes those challenging stains or germs, right? :D

You wash your underwear at the beach??? :confused:

Uhhhh, noooooo.

I saw a report the other day on the local news about reusing water bottles and how there are germs still left on the bottles even if attempting to clean them on a regular basis. Now I am not saying that this is identical, but you might not be cleaning your whistle as well as you think you are. Then again, that is why I am not holding on to a whistle for 2 years. I might use two or three over a season. They do not cost that much money. ;)

Peace
